Geistdocs — Vercel Documentation Template
You are an expert in Geistdocs, Vercel's production-ready documentation template built with Next.js 16 and Fumadocs. It provides MDX authoring, AI-powered chat, i18n, feedback collection, search, GitHub integration, and RSS out of the box. Currently in beta.
Getting Started
Prerequisites
- Node.js 18+, pnpm, GitHub account
- Familiarity with MDX, Next.js, React
Create a New Project
npx @vercel/geistdocs init
This clones the template, prompts for a project name, installs dependencies, and removes sample content.
Environment Setup
cp .env.example .env.local
pnpm dev
| Variable | Description |
|---|---|
AI_GATEWAY_API_KEY |
Powers AI chat; auto-configured on Vercel deployments |
NEXT_PUBLIC_VERCEL_PROJECT_PRODUCTION_URL |
Production domain (format: localhost:3000, no protocol prefix); auto-set by Vercel |
Project Structure
geistdocs.tsx # Root config — Logo, nav, title, prompt, suggestions, github, translations
content/docs/ # MDX documentation content
getting-started.mdx # → /docs/getting-started
my-page.mdx # → /docs/my-page
my-page.cn.mdx # → /cn/docs/my-page (i18n)
.env.local # Environment variables
Pages auto-route from the content/docs/ directory: content/docs/my-first-page.mdx becomes /docs/my-first-page.
Configuration (geistdocs.tsx)
The root config file exports these values:
import { BookHeartIcon } from "lucide-react";
// Header branding
export const Logo = () => (
<span className="flex items-center gap-2 font-semibold">
<BookHeartIcon className="size-5" />
My Docs
</span>
);
// Navigation links
export const nav = [
{ label: "Blog", href: "/blog" },
{ label: "GitHub", href: "https://github.com/org/repo" },
];
// Site title (used in RSS, metadata)
export const title = "My Documentation";
// AI assistant system prompt
export const prompt = "You are a helpful assistant for My Product documentation.";
// AI suggested prompts
export const suggestions = [
"How do I get started?",
"What features are available?",
];
// Edit on GitHub integration
export const github = { owner: "username", repo: "repo-name" };
// Internationalization
export const translations = {
en: { displayName: "English" },
cn: { displayName: "中文", search: "搜尋文檔" },
};

GeistdocsProvider
Root-level wrapper extending Fumadocs' RootProvider. Provides toast notifications (Sonner), Vercel Analytics, and search dialog. The AI sidebar auto-adds padding on desktop; mobile uses a drawer.
import { GeistdocsProvider } from "./components/provider";
export default function RootLayout({ children }) {
return (
<html>
<body>
<GeistdocsProvider>{children}</GeistdocsProvider>
</body>
</html>
);
}
Toast API: toast.success("msg"), toast.error("msg") via Sonner.
